Özet:

Cabbage cultivation is widespread in the Mediterranean region due to its easy cultivation, its high economic yield and its easy preservation. In most of the gardens installed due to high efficiency, the Chandler variety is used. The low time of cooling in the region and the high summer temperatures are the greatest factors that limit the crops. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the improvements that will optimal productivity and fruit quality in the Mediterranean climate conditions. For this purpose, 13 older plants of the Chandler coconut variety, grown at a height of 100 m, 400 m, 800 m and 1100 m in 2018 and 2019, have determined the average fruit weight, fruit wheat, length and height, shell thickness, interior coconut weight, randeman, shell and interior coconut color characteristics. The average weight of the fruit varied according to height, the highest cortex fruit weight is 12.05 g and 400 m from plants grown in Yayladağı/Hatay, while the lowest value is 9.36 g and 100 m from plants grown in Amik ovası/Hatay. As height increased, the inner weight increased, the highest value was obtained from 6.64 gr with 1100 m height and 5.84 gr with 800 m height. In the 4 different heights in which the test was carried out, the color measurement and observation results in the interior cabbage showed the effect of the height on the interior cabbage color, with the height increasing, the interior cabbage became clear.
